WooCommerce provides default text for their add to cart buttons. Here are the default text for all types of products in WooCommerce:

1. Simple product – add to cart
2. Variable product – select options
3. Grouped product – View products

While those default text make sense, you often want to change it to something more attractive to boost your sales.

If you know PHP, you can easily change the text as you like. You can stop reading the post now. However, if you don’t know how to edit the WooCommerce functions, this post is for you.

Good news is, we are not going to mess with WooCommerce code today. That’s too risky. We are going to use a plugin that I created specifically for this purpose.

Now, if I view the shop page or the product page of a simple product, I’ll see “Buy Now” instead of the default Add To Cart.

It’s simple, isn’t it?
